If you are into realistic war movies, then you enjoy a genre that holds a special place in our hearts as people. The struggles that men face during wartime, and the sacrifice it takes for men to take up arms and to defend what they know and love is incomparable to anything, and movies that portray this struggle are no different. Here are some of my top choices for wartime movies and why I like them. Hopefully, you can all relate and enjoy them as much as I do.

1. Black Hawk Down

This is a movie that is packed with action, suspense, and heroism from beginning to end. Also, it is based on a true story, making it one that you will probably never forget! With the combined acting forces of Josh Hartnett and Ewan McGregor, Black Hawk Down is the incredible story of a downed black hawk helicopter, and of the military’s mission to rescue the survivors. With jaw-dropping action and intense realism, this movie delivers the story much like it probably happened.
